Istock is telling me via email that images that have the same person, doing the same pose, where one is a close up of the face and another is a full body shot is 'too similar', and that a full body vertical shot of a person vs a horizontal torso shot are 'too similar' and have limited my uploads (to an unreasonably low number).
I have 50,000 photos. they want me to upload a max of 50 per week.
no advance warning.
I am going to lose out on all those 1 cent photo sales.
I am not complaining, I am just notifying the rest of you because they do not warn in advance, they just place the restriction and refuse to resolve it.
